Powering Logistics Intense Businesses
Delay the execution of your workflow for a specific amount of time (does not count against your compute time).
The Route4Me API provides access to a suite of tools designed for route optimization and fleet management. With its functions, you can plan routes, track vehicles, and manage addresses and members. Integrating Route4Me with Pipedream allows you to automate workflows involving logistics, dispatching, and real-time tracking. By leveraging Pipedream's capabilities, you can create event-driven automation, connect with numerous services, and handle complex logic without worrying about infrastructure.
import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"
export default defineComponent({
props: {
route4me: {
type: "app",
app: "route4me",
}
},
async run({steps, $}) {
return await axios($, {
url: `https://api.route4me.com/api.v4/address_book.php`,
params: {
api_key: `${this.route4me.$auth.api_key}`,
addr_id: ``,
},
})
},
})
The Delay API in Pipedream is a built-in function that allows you to pause a workflow for a specified amount of time. This can be incredibly useful when you need to stagger API calls to avoid rate limits, wait for an external process to complete, or simply introduce a delay between actions in a sequence. With precision up to milliseconds, the Delay API provides a simple yet powerful tool for managing timing in automation workflows.
export default defineComponent({
async run({steps, $}) {
// Specify the amount of time to delay your workflow in milliseconds
return $.flow.delay(5000)
},
})
